to hear the guitar audio tracks in SOLO mode, playing a Maj chord, then a Dim, then Min, then Sus, then Minor, then 7th

I want to HEAR what really happens, and how it really sounds.

i don't want or need to hear the other instruments (bass, drums, piano etc) "masking" the guitar track. :-)

oh , i just may have to ask AJ to do that on the 22nd :-)

or i just may have to try it myself ;-)


...And if the sound is to your satisfaction, will you buy one? Just curious.

10% will say "I'm getting one!"
50% will complain that it's too expensive, heavy, flimsy etc.
30% will say "it doesn't have enough sounds in it!"
10% will say "maybe I'll get one someday".

Of the 20% who indicated that they might or definitely would purchase, 0.5% will actually do so, yielding total sales of 4 keyboards.

Impuls,

why not enhance AUDYA's best sounding style part?

isn't that the best way to "hide" it's flaws?


ye, ye, audio guitar tracks are meant to enhance NOT replace the part...whatever

30 seconds to load 36 megabytes into the Audya?? That is classic USB 1.1 transfer speeds. But we all knew that right?

When you're on stage in front of thousands of people (okay, I'm an optimist I admit ) those 30 seconds can seem like a lifetime unfortunately. It's unfortunate because Ketron could have "very easily" spent a few extra bucks and given the Audya USB 2.0.

>> Every second before an audience counts. Twiddling your thumbs for 30 seconds or more waiting for something to load into the keyboard isn't my idea of spending time wisely. USB 2.0 could have reduced that load time to a fraction of what it actually took. >> Thanks for being penny wise and pound foolish with the Audya Ketron. It may come back to haunt you in the end. Maybe it already has...

All the best,
Mike

Mike, the sample loads from hard drive, not USB. That one very large piano sample is the only one that takes more than a couple of seconds to load. I watched AJ load several of them.
